Movie Thoughts: Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Every once in a while, I can imagine an "alternative universe" where things were different enough to begin with so that George Lucas could become a famous animation director... and while it may be that the "dark side" of that idle speculation is the smirky comments about "making movies without actors," the way things have worked out made me interested in the possibilities of science fiction and other "fantastic" stories told through animation. I suppose I have come to acknowledge that "drawn animation" has its limitations in terms of how much scope it can present, but I've also accepted it and just kept watching.
( The intersection between Star Wars and animation that does exist interests me... )
